History/Military The Church in Ancient Society: From Galilee to Gregory the Great
Posted on 2010-03-15
|
More The Church in Ancient Society: From Galilee to Gregory the Great The Church in Ancient Society provides a full and enjoyable narrative history of the first six centuries of the Christian Church. Ancient Greek and Roman society had many gods and an addiction to astrology and divination. This introduction to the period traces the process by which Christianity changed this and so provided a foundation for the modern world: the teaching of Jesus created a lasting community, which grew to command the allegiance of the Roman emperor. Christianity is discussed in relation to how it appeared to both Jews and pagans, and how its Christian doctrine and practice were shaped in relation to Graeco-Roman culture and the Jewish matrix. Among the major figures discussed are Tertullian, Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Constantine, Julian the Apostate, Basil, Ambrose, and Augustine. Following a chronological approach, Henry Chadwick's clear exposition of important texts and theological debates in their historical context is unrivalled in detail. In particular, theological and ecclesial texts are examined in relation to the behaviour and beliefs of people who attended churches and synagogues. Christians did not find agreement and unity easy and the author displays a distinctive concern for the factors - theological, personal, and political - which caused division in the church and prevented reconciliation. The emperors, however, began to foster unity for political reasons and to choose monotheism. Finally, the Church captured the society. `This work provides a wealth of information on its period as well as many a helpful indication of the nature and location of relevant sources.' Journal of Theological Studies `The first 600 years: that is nearly one third of the Church's entire history. No one but Henry Chadwick ... could have given us so full and so authoritative an account of these decisive centuries. His new book crowns a body of illuminating work on several of the outstanding figures as well as on many of the thorniest problems of the early Church's history.' R. A. Markus, The Tablet `The book is a tour de fource to which we will keep turning as an essential reference work.' R. A. Markus, The Table `Review from other book by this author Early Christian Thought and the Classical Tradition skilful characterizations and brilliant exposition which one finds everywhere' Journal of Theological Studies `Augustine: A Very Short Introduction 'magisterial and highly readable.'' Bookseller Augustine: ' The Confessions' `Chadwick's translation is superb.' Church History, June 1993 `If the Latin is a "work of high art", so is this translation.' The Times `A masterpiece beyond classification.' Church Times Mirror: Mirror -> excellent! many thanx! Remember. Never fully trust the official version of history..... MIRROR : @Foub: it depends on what you mean by 'official' - from Mohammed (and all the offshoots of Islam), to the 2000 versions of 'christianity', or the 20 denominations of Judiasm, Buddism, Shinto, Tao, Mormon, etc. Anything that is not of the truth is a lie. There is one God - the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. All that He inspired in the Bible is truth, all the rest is a lie. It is up to each person to prove, test, study and ascertain the veracity of the Bible against the endless doctrines of men, because the true Church is a little flock who obeys God implicitly without the need for some 'leader' to tell them to follow their edicts because they said so - and punishes those who do not obey them and swallow their lies. Test the spirits...
